Alberto Rossi's Chicken Saltimbocca

'Saltimbocca’ mean ‘jumps in the mouth’

Serves 4 people

Ingredients:

4 Chicken Breasts, skinless and split in half
8 slices of Parma Ham
8 Sage Leaves
8 slices of tomato
8 Slices of cheese
½ glass of White Wine
Flour
Salt and Pepper

Method:

1. Set the oven to 170 C.
2. Split in half (by the length) your chicken breasts, so they are thinner and will cook faster.
3. Dust the chicken in some flour and over medium heat, in a pan with some oil, cook the chicken on each side until golden.
4. Deglaze with the wine and remove from the pan.
5. Once removed from the pan, put a sage leaf on the chicken, then a tomato slice, and cover it with the Parma Ham and then the cheese.
6. Put the chicken breasts in an oven dish and cook in the oven for 10 minutes.
7. Serve while still hot.
8. This recipe goes well with roast potatoes or even a simple salad.
